I first visited a website which I will not write here and took a personality test of 9 questions and came out as a Zebra after answering the questions with all genuineness. I am a 29yr old man and I had tears coming out of my eyes like a child because I had always known and felt those characteristics,strongly. I never had anyone growing up to really love me genuinely as I and my sister grew up with an uncle and had a terrible growing experience. I was born a muslim and I&#39;ve always looked away when it comes to astrological talk. But I&#39;ve also sneaked a peek in the Newspaper horoscope a few times to read about Taurus. I would really appreciate more information on this character as I have wasted a lot of years not knowing who I am and didn&#39;t have my parents growing up. <br /><br />my name is LekanAli Babahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726538915396035030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233878607747520713.post-38165572978676606702015-11-27T19:00:42.720+00:002015-11-27T19:00:42.720+00:00beautifully said,

I found this blog via Flickr where ...Thanks Eolake. I found this blog via Flickr where I now post most of my photos. I saw a photo of yours of the lovely model Marketa which I had seen a few years before but claimed by someone else. At the time I was so struck by her beauty that I did a search and found you were the original photographer but that there were many copies scattered around the net. Then, about 2½ years ago I saw your photo of her on Flickr (and left a comment). I was reminded again yesterday when someone else commented on it - and so looked up your other interests.<br /><br />Jungian psychology is based on the idea that we are all motivated by subconscious drives and only feel satisfied with ourselves when we are making progress with one (or more) of them in real life. The problem is that consciously we have no direct knowledge of what these drives are at any stage in our life so we have to look for clues - basically by noting anything that seems to catch our attention, especially more than once (this is the basis of the &quot;synchronicity&quot; idea). He looked at the myths and folklore stories of different cultures and found many similar themes he called <i>mythologems</i>: his view was that these stories survived over hundreds of years because they do resonate with the inner drives of enough people. This shared imagery he called <i>the collective unconscious</i>.<br /><br />I have always thought that our appreciation of art and beauty is also based on these <i>mythologems</i>, one particularly strong one being the ideal of humanity being in harmony with nature, a kind of return to The Garden of Eden but this time with knowledge and responsibility. This has been the theme of <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jonathancharlesphoto/sets/72157627339939135" rel="nofollow">much of my work</a>. It was very exciting for me to find these ideas expressed in the James Hollis book I mentioned.<br /><br />Seeing some of your writings I think you have some quite similar ideas. I wasn&#39;t aware of most of your photography but looked up your website DOMAI and was amazed at the size of it and enormous range of beautiful women photographed. I guess you could not have taken all of them yourself but you have maintaned an extremely high standard of beauty without explicit sexuality, especially a kind of innocence which challenges the viewer to recognise that appreciation of naked feminine beauty is not the same as pornography or even &quot;glamour&quot; (= in The Garden of Eden, not in the outside world of exploitation and domination). It must now be a big commercial enterprise - are you still running the site do you have a team of people to do that while you move on to other things?Jonathan Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12127283914525256940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233878607747520713.post-63633557509609409002015-05-28T19:04:25.923+01:002015-05-28T19:04:25.923+01:00I&#39;m not sure.

The famou...The one who said is Jens Martin Knudsen. The famous (in Denmark at least) astrophysicist who had the planet Mars as his special research interest.<br /><br />For me the quote makes sense even when &quot;truth&quot; has been found in that truth often has many levels and is relative. Thus when finding it at some level one may stop looking further, and also, perhaps, feel less than friendly towards anyone who would have the temerity to propose another aspect or level of it -- in particular so, as you mention, if one had started earning money and/or getting followers for having found the &quot;right&quot; truth. <br /><br />We see this happen continually in academia, religion and spiritual movements. Examples are all the disagreements amongst those into subjects such as &quot;The Secret&quot;, Remote Viewing, and A Course In Miracles, just to mention a few. Each of the above subjects contain many interesting data so this has more to do with the individuals than the subject themselves.<br /><br />Thus I feel that being able to tolerate differing opinions and doubt to some extent is a valuable and necessary step in becoming fully mature as a human being, scientist, or researcher of spiritual matters.<br /><br />In line with the quote from Jens Martin Knudsen and in the area of research and doubt there is another interesting one from Darwin:<br />&quot;I always make special notes about evidence that contradicts me. Supportive evidence I can remember<br />without trying!&quot;Franknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233878607747520713.post-60392778523868272262014-01-05T18:52:24.484+00:002014-01-05T18:52:24.484+00:00Being cautious about that is good advice.
